Video 2Sylka Carpets - How to do an invisible join

Do you need to join your carpet? With Sylka you can easily join two sections together!

[@mwnciboo]

That is an excellent level of finish.

Very nice job done fella. Cheers 🇦🇺

[@BloodRedGremlin]

Amazing job, I learnt a lot thankyou

[@lisamccarthy8881]

its a good join because its a easy carpet to join. try a loop pile!!

[@josephnorcalusa1710]

Good job 👍

[@mikeoxlong3504]

How on earth is that even possible? Thats incredible!

[@diamoniqueallen2231]

Instead of a seam iron could I just use a regular iron instead? It’s a one time diy project and I don’t really want to invest in it but I will if it’s necessary

[@Christuffrz28]

A little seam sealer goes a long way and keeps your seam from comong apart due to delamination. As far as the straight edge technique, this is sometimes tge only way to make a good seam w cheaper material. Quality rug you would do better by row cutting, to each their own.. Looks good from here...

[@juanbadillo1373]

Row cutting is best you had to do alot of extra work scissoring and tracking the seam to make it look good row cutting leaves it smooth and flush with no extra fibers being cut off

[@thuylee77]

The carpet is fluffy enough tho, for cheap carpet it is really hard to hide the join

[@jamiepirie9758]

yep

[@music292929]

That’s incredible! Can you come and do mine? 😩

[@chrisdavid2408]

The perfect joint! I gotta tell snoop dog about this

[@shamsihaghighi681]

What iron did you use?

[@stevendavis7456]

I know you ended up with a decent result, but row cutting is the only way to go and you don’t end up with all those “strays.”

[@wrybread]

Thanks for that. Is "row cutting" using a row cutter? If so do you have a recommendation, or will any work? I see this one for example: www.amazon.com/Crain-301-Cushion-Carpet-Cutter/dp/B00BC1ZCK4

[@alexlook8017]

@@wrybread that's the wrong kind of cutter. I use the Roberts loop pile cutter, Crain also make their own version Not just for loop pile they so work on twist carpets You also need a "row finder" to make a guide line for the row cutter to follow

[@wrybread]

@@alexlook8017 Awesome, thanks for that.

[@willjenn3857]

How about using some seam sealer. So it is not a perfect joint. Seam will fry in a matter of months.

[@johnsiragusa1462]

the loose carpet should be removed before you seam.

[@petersalmon4203]

I have a trap door into a cellar. How do I carpet over and around the door in order to hide the door but still allow access when needed? Is this possible?

[@petersalmon4203]

Thanks for the advice.

[@larrymartelllm]

Absolutely. Do it a lot

[@caseylindenberg857]

No one ever tackles the two tones on a how to video

[@sullycliftona]

U think I’m coming in here r kid to save money. ??!!and u got. How much invested in yer. Bogus carpet iron heat tape. Contraption

[@joshuaanderson508]

Super misleading video. I am so tired of amatuers who claim seams are invisible. The correct information would be that some carpet seams may have less visibility than others. No seam can be guarantee invisible. Some carpet, no matter how good you are as installer, the seams will be visible. Stop spreading misinformation, it gives homeowners false hope which makes a nightmare for installers.
